Teaspoons to Grams Converter

Direct Answer Summary

Converting teaspoons to grams depends strictly on ingredient density. For baking powder or salt, 1 teaspoon weighs approximately 5 to 6 grams. For granulated white sugar, 1 teaspoon equals 4.2 grams, while 1 teaspoon of all-purpose flour weighs approximately 2.6 grams. Three level teaspoons equal one standard tablespoon.

Convert teaspoons to grams for baking powder, baking soda, salt, yeast, spices, and sugar with density accuracy.

Density Variance

Weight Beats Volume

A cup of flour weighs 125g, while a cup of granulated sugar weighs 200g. Density differences mean 1 cup cannot have a single fixed weight.

Flour Technique

Spoon & Level Method

Scooping directly from the bag packs flour down by up to 25% (150g+ per cup), causing dry, dense cakes and bread. Spoon into the cup and level off.

Convection Adjustment

Reduce Fan Temp by 20°C / 25°F

Fan-forced ovens circulate air more efficiently. When baking with convection, reduce standard recipe temperatures by 20°C (25°F).
